A new school, a fresh start in the kitchen

Emily Green arrives at a temporary new school after her own is closed for renovations, separated from the friends she expected to see there. A familiar face offers a first foothold, but a school baking contest brings a more personal question: how can Emily take part without being measured against her stepsister Katie, known for founding the Cupcake Club? Baking becomes the setting for Emily to consider what makes her approach her own. Black-and-white illustrations accompany this opening chapter book in the Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch series.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Ages 9–12 looking for a school-based story about friendship and adjusting to change.
  • Young readers who enjoy baking contests and cupcake-themed fiction.
  • Readers interested in stories about siblings and finding an individual identity within a family.

Book overview

Katie Brown's stepsister starts at a new school and discovers her own way to bake in this first book in the Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch chapter book series, the little sister series to the bestselling Cupcake Diaries. Includes black and white illustrations throughout and eye-catching glitter on the cover!

Emily Green has to switch to a new school while her old one is being renovated, and she's devastated when her friends get assigned somewhere else, leaving her totally alone. When she recognizes a girl from her old school, she at least has someone to sit with at lunchtime. But just as Emily is getting comfortable, her school announces a baking contest. Emily has baked before with her stepsister, Katie Brown, who's well-known for starting the Cupcake Club--but does Emily really want to live in Katie's shadow?

She's feeling nervous until Katie advises her to bake cupcakes "The Emily Way," and Emily starts to realize there's room for two star bakers in their family!
